Re: Lolita trailer music

Lists and Lolita -- Can I express how much envy I have in me, that you brought these together? While the Lolita concept might be disturbing to some, you've to hand it to Nabokov and the film adaptation for the handling .... there is no way I can't acknowledge brilliant.

I love that movie because I think we come into it expecting to frown upon our protagonist, and he ends up being, if not sympathetic, pitiable in his weirdness. And the story goes where you do NOT expect it to.

I haven't seen the remake w/Jeremy Irons (Irons being the only thing that would influence me to see it) - but I also think that what's nice about the original is they didn't show any of the sexual relationship, but it was still completely out there for the audience to grasp. I like to think of all the old ladies and their beehives watching it gasping :-D

Do you remember that clip you posted a while ago of Kate Winslet dancing around shaking her groove thing? Well, I just finished watching the movie that came from, Romance and Cigarettes. I'm not going to lie, that was a strange, strange movie.
